We understand illnesses can happen. Please keep in mind that absences can affect your child's progress! There's lots of content your child misses when they are NOT present. Make up work is required to be completed to assure they are caught up. This can be VERY overwhelming for students and parents, especially when they have to complete current assignments in addition to make up work. 4th grade content is rigorous, complex. Their presence in class allows your child to receive the scaffolding they need to undertand the rigorous content. We appreciate your support!/Entendemos que las enfermedades pueden ocurrir. ¡Por favor tenga en cuenta que las ausencias pueden afectar el progreso de su hijo/a! Hay mucho contenido que su hijo/a se pierde cuando NO está presente. Se requiere que se complete el trabajo que faltó para asegurar que se pongan al día. Esto puede ser MUY abrumador para los estudiantes y los padres, especialmente cuando tienen que completar las tareas actuales además del trabajo que faltó. El contenido de cuarto grado es riguroso, complejo. Su presencia en clase le permite a su hijo/a recibir el andamiaje que necesita para comprender el contenido riguroso. ¡Agradecemos su apoyo!

  • A routine should be set in place in order to assure your child dedicates time to read in a quiet place. Technology devices should be out of sight to avoid distraction. This may need to be reinforced every so often to keep a consistent schedule.
